Lady and the Tramp - Feburary 17, 2013

Our very first Disney Family Fun Day was Lady and the Tramp -- how fitting for the weekend after Valentine's Day!  Steve and Dianne, Bruce, Melissa, and Ryan, Jess and Reece, Ashley and Chris, and even little Liam gathered around the living room with our blankets and watched the movie.  Well technically Liam didn't watch the movie (he was too interested in cheese balls and toys and we almost voted him off the island at one point -- he's a busy, busy, busy one year old!) and Dianne may have been a little buzzed from her quest to drink the wine so we could use the bottle as a candle holder (is it hot in here??), but we all still enjoyed the movie very much.  I still love Jock and Trusty!  We tried to call Grandma Marlene, but she turned her phone off for church and forgot to turn it back on -- silly lady -- so she missed out on the fun (boooo!).

After the movie we moved on to some crafts.  We tried to make these cute little Lady and Tramp paper cutout puppets, but didn't get to fully assemble them.  There were a lot of cuts and tabs and they just didn't seem to stay together very well.  We also had some coloring pages which helped save the day!

Bruce even got into the crafts

After the crafts we set the table for our Lady and the Tramp inspired meal.  I was lucky enough to find a red and white checkered table cloth in the Valentine's clearance section and picked up two for $0.97!  Can't beat that deal!  For dinner we had:

Tony's Spaghetti and Meatballs

Bony Breadsticks

Tramp's Tossed Greens

Lady's Fancy Fruit Salad

Si and Am's String Beans

Pinot Leshio (sparkling apple juice)

and Spaghetti and Meatball Cupcakes

Here's our table (and mom's wine bottle candle holder <hiccup>)... 

All in all our first Disney Family Fun Day was a blast!  We decided that at the end of each movie night we would let someone pick the movie for next month.  We also decided that from now on we would try to focus on movies that have rides or characters in Walt Disney World.  Reece was the lucky one who got to choose March's movie and he decided on Disney's Dinosaur! 

Until next time remember "It all started with a mouse!"
